SYMPHONIANA LAURELS IN THE WEST At the beginning of this month the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave ten concerts in cities west of New England. The Orchestra was heard by 35,600 in auditoriums varying in capacity from 2,000 to 6,000, the audiences limited only by their size. Regular Tuesday evening ABC broad- casts were made from two of these ) concerts. The unanimous pleasure and satisfac- tion derived from the concerts on this tour are indicated by the following representative quotations: PITTSBURGH — December 2 This year's visit of the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra brings us two concerts, the first of which Serge Koussevitzky directed in Syria Mosque last night. It was a "standing room only" audi- ence. To speak of the orchestra is only to repeat platitudinous praise, and yet with each program one is assured again that it stands without equal in the world. Each man may well be a vir- tuoso but the blending of instrumental voices and their tone colors has been so perfect an accomplishment, that, in the classics especially, one hears new voices with every repetition. — J.

Last night at Syria Mosque this emi- nent leader and magnificent orchestra played another program to a full house. The audience not only enjoyed the per- formance — it was thrilled, and it evi- denced its appreciation with sustained applause. — Ralph Lewando Pittsburgh Press & [579] CLEVELAND — December 4 Always an event of the first magni- tude in Cleveland music circles, the annual concert of the Boston Symphony Orchestra last night at Public Music Hall produced its customary effect on an audience of major proportions. It was an effect of tremendous enthusiasm expressed in persistent recalls to the stage of that veteran dynamo of leader- ship whose name has become synony- mous with this admirable orchestra, Dr. Serge Koussevitzky. Now in his 72d year, this extraordi- nary musical personality continues to impress his own indomitable spirit upon this group and permeate it to an un- canny degree. From this body of ex- pert musicians, who seem to anticipate every movement of his lips, to say nothing of what he communicates with his hands, Koussevitzky draws beauty of sound with all the energy and tenacity of a bee extracting pollen from a flower. And if ever there was a magic powder capable of fertilizing the imagi- nation of the listener, it is certainly to be found in the particular brand of star dust employed by this eminent virtuoso of the baton. One was carried away, not only by the zestful conviction and subtle nuance that went into every phrase of the music, but by the sheer beauty of tone which comes from every section of the orchestra. — Herbert Elwell Cleveland Plain Dealer. CHICAGO — December 6 At Orchestra Hall last evening the Boston Symphony Orchestra, con- ducted by Serge Koussevitzky, gave the first of the two concerts which it is offering here this season. It proved again that as an organization there can Pure Silk be but few orchestras in the world to approach, and none to excel it.

WELLESLEY ~ HYANNIS r PALM RivACH — Felix Borowski Chicago Sun [58o] CHICAGO, December 8 It may be that this amazing orchestra plays consistently at the peak of its form, as it must have played yesterday, and it may be that Serge Koussevitzky constantly conducts like a man inspired. But it is not often, to my sorrow, that I am around when such things happen, so that I sit on the edge of my chair and suddenly realize I haven't been breath- ing. When this happens, magicians have been at work, and this time Debussy's magnificently realized "La Mer" cast the spell. Not even mediocrity can ut- terly dim the splendor of this giant seascape, but it can blur and confuse the music, and frustrate the perceptive senses. A good performance is a de- light, but a great performance — ah, there you have another story. — Claudia Cassidy Chicago Daily Tribune Co ll^cHovi oT DETROIT — December 10, 1946 Detroiters who were fortunate enough to get tickets in a standing-room-only house, turned out at Masonic Temple Auditorium to give a thundering wel- come to the greatest symphony orches- tra in the world. For there is no arguing that among the great musical organizations the Boston Symphony Orchestra stands head and shoulders above all others. From such magnificence of reputa- Hoi,, all 2l^qm/ tion, one should expect magnificent things. Anything less than perfection would be bitterly disappointing. Even with these advance expecta- tions it is to be doubted if the audience was entirely prepared for the sheer, breath-taking beauty and excitement of performance that pervaded the evening. The great masses of strings were tre- mendously impressive in the body of tone they produced, as well as in the unfailing discipline they displayed. Koussevitzky, with economy of ges- ture and utter surety as to the effects he desired, molded the mighty orches- tra to his will, so that the music emerged as the production of one genius, express- ing the thoughts of the composer. — J.

Abstract This monograph examines the post-exile, multi-version works of Sergei Rachmaninoff with a view to unravelling the sophisticated web of meanings and values attached to them. Compositional revision is an important and complex aspect of creating musical meaning. Considering revision offers an important perspective on the construction and circulation of meanings and discourses attending Rachmaninoff’s music. While Rachmaninoff achieved international recognition during the 1890s as a distinctively Russian musician, I argue that Rachmaninoff’s return to certain compositions through revision played a crucial role in the creation of a narrative and set of tropes representing “Russian diaspora” following the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution.

  • SYNC EVENT the Ethnographic Allegory of Unsere Afrikareise
    SYNC EVENT The Ethnographic Allegory of Unsere Afrikareise Erik Rosshagen Department of Media Studies Master’s Thesis 30 HE credits Cinema Studies Master’s Programme in Cinema Studies Spring 2016 Supervisor: Associate Professor Malin Wahlberg SYNC EVENT The Ethnographic Allegory of Unsere Afrikareise Erik Rosshagen ABSTRACT The thesis aims at a critical reflexion on experimental ethnography with a special focus on the role of sound. A reassessment of its predominant discourse, as conceptualized by Cathrine Russell, is paired with a conceptual approach to film sound and audio- vision. By reactivating experimental filmmaker Peter Kubelka’s concept sync event and its aesthetic realisation in Unsere Afrikareise (Our Trip to Africa, Peter Kubelka, 1966) the thesis provide a themed reflection on the materiality of film as audiovisual relation. Sync event is a concept focused on the separation and meeting of image and sound to create new meanings, or metaphors. By reintroducing the concept and discussing its implication in relation to Michel Chion’s audio-vision, the thesis theorizes the audiovisual relation in ethnographic/documentary film more broadly. Through examples from the Russian avant-garde and Surrealism the sync event is connected to a historical genealogy of audiovisual experiments. With James Clifford’s notion ethnographic allegory Unsere Afrikareise becomes as a case in point of experimental ethnography at work. The sync event is comprehended as an ethnographic allegory with the audience at its focal point; a colonial critique performed in the active process of audio-viewing film.

  • Strategies of Digital Surrealism in Contemporary Western Cinema by à 2018 Andrei Kartashov Bakalavr, Saint Petersburg State University, 2012
    Strategies of Digital Surrealism in Contemporary Western Cinema By ã 2018 Andrei Kartashov Bakalavr, Saint Petersburg State University, 2012 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Chair: Dr. Catherine Preston Dr. Ronald Wilson Margaret Jamieson Date Defended: 27 April 2018 ii The thesis committee for Andrei Kartashov certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Strategies of Digital Surrealism in Contemporary Western Cinema Chair: Dr. Catherine Preston Date Approved: 27 April 2018 iii Abstract This thesis joins an ongoing discussion of cinema’s identity in the digital age. The new technology, which by now has become standard for moving images of any kind, has put into question existing assumptions and created paradoxes from a continuity between two different media that are, however, thought of as one medium. I address that problem from the perspective of surrealist film theory, which insisted on paradoxes and saw cinema as an art form that necessarily operated on contradictions: a quality that resonated with surrealism’s general aesthetic theory. To support my argument, I then analyze in some depth three contemporary works of cinema that possess surrealist attributes and employed digital technology in their making in a self-conscious way. Leos Carax’s Holy Motors, Pedro Costa’s Horse Money, and Seances by Guy Maddin, Evan Johnson and Galen Johnson all point to specific contradictions revealed by digital technology that they resolve, or hold in tension, in accordance with the surrealist notion of point sublime.

Jawaharlal Nehru University New Delhi, 2010: 33-44. ISSN: 0970-7522 SURREALISM AND VIOLENCE, LUIS BUÑUEL'S THE LOS OLVIDADOS (THE FORGOTTEN ONES) Enric Bou Brown University Buñuel, surrealist director In January of 1950 Luis Buñuel writes to his friend José Rubia Barcia about his latest film project. It is a project which he considers to be fundamental for the future of his film career (and his personal destiny) in Mexico, where he arrived in 1947 from Hollywood. The new film will be a "mixture of Tierra sin pan (Land Without Bread) and L’âge d’or (The Golden Age), with the addition of elements from the last fifteen years"1. A few months earlier he had divulged his general idea for the project: "I hope that [Los Olvidados] will be something extraordinary in the current panorama of international cinema. It is harsh and rough and does not spare the audience. Realist, but with a subtle vigorous poetic vein, and at times erotic"2. Los Olvidadosis the third film which Buñuel, after various failures, makes in Mexico. He had gone there to make a cinematic version of Garcia Lorca's play, The House of Bernarda Alba, but the project was never realized. In Mexico he meets the producer Oscar Dancigers and he is commissioned to do a series of jobs. The first is Gran Casino (1947), which is followed by El gran calavera (The Great Madcap, 1949) and, finally, Los Olvidados.
